Proving Negligence in a Webster Groves Personal Injury Case

Most personal injury cases are based on negligence claims. To succeed in a case based on negligence, you must establish that four elements exist:

1. The defendant owed you a duty of care. For example, all motorists owe a duty of care to operate their vehicles safely to avoid harming others.
2. The defendant breached their duty of care. In a motor vehicle accident, if the defendant ran a red light and crashed into you, they have likely breached their duty of care.
3. The defendant’s breach of duty was the cause of your accident and injuries. In the motor vehicle example, you must prove that the cause of your accident and injuries was the defendant running the red light.
4. You suffered actual damages as a result of the defendant’s breach of duty. You could establish your damages with proof of physical harm, emotional harm, or property damage.

Each element of negligence must be established with substantial evidence. Our Webster Groves personal injury attorneys carefully investigate your accident to identify causation and liability and uncover the evidence to prove your claim.

Evidence Used in a Webster Groves Personal Injury Case

The evidence used to prove your claim depends on the specific facts of your case. For example, in a motor vehicle accident claim, we may utilize photographs and video footage from the accident scene, police reports, eyewitness accounts, and data from electronic recording devices to establish causation and liability.

We may also use medical records, bills, invoices, employment records, proof of lost income, and medical and economic expert witness testimony to establish the existence and value of your economic and non-economic damages.
